Talk:SpaceX CRS-2

Rationale for article
I've created this article given that there is already a launch date of 15 December 2012 set. As there was an article for COTS Demo Flight 2 and COTS Demo Flight 3 before even the first flight was flown, and specific launch dates were not yet available when the articles were created, it seemed appropriate to have this one created.

 * Launch date is now scheduled for March and is reported to be a day launch, which means we will probably get some great pictures of lift-off.--Craigboy (talk) 06:55, 9 January 2013 (UTC)

Time conflict: UTC versus others
The article contains a number of different time formats even though UTC is supposed to be the standard for Wikipedia in order to have a worldwide common frame of reference. When I have time I will try to make all timestamps the same (i.e UTC) unless someone else beats me to it. When using UTC it should not be necessary to have any other timestamp in brackets and this will save both time and space. Abul Bakhtiar (talk) 06:40, 28 April 2016 (UTC)


 * thanks for pointing this out. This is exactly correct. I use http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/converter.html for these conversions, and will take care of it and CRS-3. Cheers! — Huntster (t @ c) 14:15, 28 April 2016 (UTC)
